Definitions
- the present disclosure relates generally to the field of explosives, and relates more particularly to an improved ignitor for electronic detonators.
- a typical electronic detonator may include an electronically-actuated ignitor that is configured to ignite a primary charge, which may in-turn ignite a more powerful secondary charge.
- the ignitor may include a capacitor with a pair of electrical leads extending therefrom. The leads may be connected to one another by a resistive element that is configured to emit heat when current passes therethrough.
- the resistive element may be a length of wire (e.g., nichrome wire), referred to as a “bridge wire,” or may be a surface mount resistor, referred to as a “bridge resistor.”
- the resistive element may be coated with a quantity of pyrotechnic composition that may be ignited when the capacitor is discharged through the leads and the resistive element.
- the ignited pyrotechnic composition may burn at a sufficiently high temperature to ignite the primary charge.
- a pyrotechnic composition is commonly applied to the resistive element of an ignitor by hand-dipping the resistive element into the pyrotechnic composition, after which the pyrotechnic composition is allowed to cure into a solid mass that coats the resistive element.
- This technique is associated with several shortcomings. For example, it requires a worker to be in close proximity to, and sometimes in direct contact with, the pyrotechnic composition, which can be hazardous. Additionally, it is difficult to control the amount of pyrotechnic composition that is applied to the resistive element during dipping. If too little of the pyrotechnic composition is applied, the ignitor may fail to ignite the primary charge of a detonator. If too much of the pyrotechnic composition is applied, the composition may be wasted, needlessly increasing the cost of the detonator.
- An exemplary embodiment of an ignitor for an electronic detonator in accordance with the present disclosure may include a microcontroller and a capacitor mounted on a printed circuit board (PCB) and electrically connected to one another, the microcontroller configured to discharge the capacitor in response to an actuation signal received by the microcontroller, a pair of conductive traces extending from the capacitor, a resistive element extending between the conductive traces and configured to radiate heat in response to current flowing therethrough, and a shroud disposed over the resistive element, the shroud containing a pyrotechnic composition that at least partially covers the resistive element.
- PCB printed circuit board
- An exemplary embodiment of an electronic detonator in accordance with the present disclosure may include a tubular shell having a closed end and an open end, an ignitor disposed within the shell, the ignitor including a microcontroller and a capacitor mounted on a printed circuit board (PCB) and electrically connected to one another, the microcontroller configured to discharge the capacitor in response to an actuation signal received by the microcontroller, a pair of conductive traces extending from the capacitor, a resistive element extending between the conductive traces, and a shroud disposed over the resistive element, the shroud containing a pyrotechnic composition that at least partially covers the resistive element, the detonator further including a charge disposed within the shell adjacent an open end of the shroud, the charge adapted to be ignited by burning of the pyrotechnic composition.
- PCB printed circuit board
- An exemplary embodiment of a method for manufacturing an ignitor for an electronic detonator in accordance with the present disclosure may include mounting a microcontroller and a capacitor on a printed circuit board (PCB) in electrical communication with one another, with a pair of conductive traces extending from the capacitor, the microcontroller configured to discharge the capacitor upon receiving an actuation signal, the method further including connecting the conductive traces to one another with a resistive element adapted to radiate heat in response to current flowing therethrough, placing a shroud over the resistive element, and filling the shroud with a pyrotechnic composition that at least partially covers the resistive element.
- PCB printed circuit board
- FIG. 1 is a schematic cut-away view illustrating an interior of an electronic detonator including an ignitor in accordance an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure
- FIG. 2 is a flow diagram illustrating an exemplary method of manufacturing the ignitor shown in FIG. 1 .
- the detonator 10 may include a tubular shell 14 having a closed end 16 and an open end 18 .
- the open end 18 of the shell 14 may be plugged with a plug 20 formed of a resilient, electrically insulating material (e.g., rubber, silicone, etc.) for preventing environmental elements (e.g., water, dust, particulate matter, etc.) from entering the shell 14 .
- the shell 14 may be crimped onto the plug 20 for establishing a hermetic seal therebetween and for preventing the plug 20 from being inadvertently removed from of the shell 14 .
- the ignitor 12 of the detonator 10 may include a microcontroller 22 and a capacitor 24 mounted on a printed circuit board (PCB) 26 .
- the microcontroller 22 may be operatively connected to the capacitor 24 by conductive traces 28 on the PCB 26 , and may be configured to facilitate charging and discharging of the capacitor 24 as further described below.
- a pair of leg wires 30 may extend through the plug 20 and may be connected to the microcontroller 22 .
- the leg wires may 30 be provided for supplying electrical signals to the microcontroller 22 , such as may be transmitted from a control device (not shown) remote from the detonator 10 .
- the PCB 26 may include a peninsular portion 32 extending from a relatively wider main portion 34 .
- a pair of conductive terminals or traces 36 may extend from the capacitor 24 onto the peninsular portion 32 .
- the conductive traces 36 may be connected to one another by a resistive element 38 extending between the conductive traces 36 .
- the resistive element 38 may be adapted to radiate heat in response to current flowing therethrough.
- the resistive element 38 may be a surface mounted bridge resistor that may be installed on the PCB 26 using surface-mount technology (SMT) manufacturing methods that will be familiar to those of ordinary skill in the art.
- the resistive element 38 may be a bridge wire (e.g., a length of nichrome wire) that may be soldered to the conductive traces 36 .
- the ignitor 12 may further include a metallic housing or shroud 40 that surrounds and partially encloses the peninsular portion 32 of the PCB 26 including the resistive element 38 .
- the shroud 40 may be a substantially cup-shaped member with an open end 42 and an opposing closed end 44 .
- the peninsular portion 32 may extend through the closed end 44 , and the closed end 44 may be secured to the peninsular portion 32 .
- the closed end 44 may be crimped or pressed into notches 46 a , 46 b formed in the sides of the peninsular portion 32 .
- the shroud 40 may be secured to the peninsular portion 32 of the PCB 26 using any of a variety of mechanical fastening means. In various other embodiments of the ignitor 12 , the shroud 40 may additionally or alternatively be fastened to the main portion 34 of the PCB 26 and/or to an interior of the shell 14 .
- the shroud 40 may be partially or entirely filled with a quantity of pyrotechnic composition 48 that covers the resistive element 38 .
- the pyrotechnic composition 48 may be a chemical composition that is adapted to be ignited via heating of the resistive element 38 and that may burn at a temperature sufficient to ignite an adjacent charge as further described below.
- the pyrotechnic composition 48 may be any of a variety of chemical compositions including, but not limited to, zirconium-potassium perchlorate, boron-potassium nitrate, aluminum-potassium perchlorate, and titanium-aluminum-potassium perchlorate. All such compositions may be referred to generically as “pyrogens.”
- the pyrotechnic composition 48 may be poured or injected into the shroud 40 in a liquid or semi-liquid state and may subsequently be cured or dried to form a solid mass that at least partially envelopes the resistive element 38 .
- the shroud 40 provides a receptacle for holding the liquid or semi-liquid pyrotechnic composition 48 which may be poured or injected into the shroud 40 using an automated process. This provides numerous advantages relative to conventional manual dipping methods in which a resistive element of an ignitor is hand-dipped into a liquid pyrotechnic composition. For example, workers need not be in close proximity to the pyrotechnic composition, thus increasing safety of the manufacturing process.
- a very precise quantity of pyrotechnic composition may be poured or injected into shroud 40 to cover the resistive element 38 , ensuring that an effective amount of pyrotechnic composition is applied to the resistive element 38 while minimizing or eliminating waste of the pyrotechnic composition.
- the detonator 10 may further include a primary charge 50 and a secondary charge 52 .
- the primary charge 50 may be disposed adjacent the open end 44 of the shroud 40 and may be adapted to be ignited by heat radiated by the pyrotechnic composition 48 upon burning thereof.
- the primary charge 50 may be or may include any type of conventional primary explosive material, including, but not limited to, ASA compound (lead azide, lead styphnate, and aluminum) and/or diazo dinitro phenol (DDNP).
- the secondary charge 52 may be disposed adjacent the primary charge 50 and may be adapted to be ignited by heat radiated by the primary charge 50 upon burning thereof.
- the secondary charge 52 may be or may include any type of conventional secondary explosive material, including, but not limited to, trinitrotoluene (TNT), tetryl, pentaerythritol tetranitrate, and/or RDX.
- TNT trinitrotoluene
- tetryl tetryl
- pentaerythritol tetranitrate and/or RDX.
- Alternative embodiments of the detonator 10 are contemplated in which the primary charge 50 may be omitted and the secondary charge 52 may be disposed adjacent to, and may be adapted to be ignited directly by, the pyrotechnic composition 48 .
- an actuation signal may be transmitted to the microcontroller 22 via the leg wires 30 (e.g., from a remote control device).
- the microcontroller 22 may cause the electrically charged capacitor 24 to be discharged through the conductive traces 36 and through the resistive element 38 .
- the microcontroller 22 may include logic that may be configured to provide a predetermined delay between receipt of the actuation signal and discharging of the capacitor 24 .
- the resistive element 38 may radiate a sufficient amount of heat to ignite the pyrotechnic composition 48 .
- Heat emitted by the burning pyrotechnic composition 48 may ignite the primary charge 50 , which may in-turn ignite the secondary charge 52 , resulting in a concussive blast.
- heat emitted by the burning pyrotechnic composition 48 may be reflected and deflected by the interior surface of the shroud 40 toward the primary charge 50 .
- the shroud 40 thus facilitates a more efficient transfer of heat from the burning pyrotechnic composition 48 to the primary charge 50 relative to conventional electronic ignitors that do not have a shroud.
- a smaller quantity of pyrotechnic composition 48 may be used in the ignitor 12 relative to conventional electronic ignitors, thereby reducing the cost of the ignitor 12 relative to conventional electronic ignitors.

- FIG. 2 a flow diagram illustrating an exemplary method for manufacturing the above-described ignitor 12 in accordance with the present disclosure is shown. The method will now be described in conjunction with the schematic illustration of the detonator 10 shown in FIG. 1 .
- the microcontroller 22 and the capacitor 24 may be mounted on the PCB 26 and may be operatively connected to one another by conductive traces 28 .
